Stargazing collection

Experience the starriest skies in England

Vast inky skies filled with thousands of shimmering stars, comets and the Milky Way are a defining feature of the Northumbrian countryside. Far removed from light pollution, the Northumberland International Dark Sky Park – which comprises 572 square miles of Gold Tier Dark Skies – boasts the most pristine and clear skies in the whole of the UK, making it the top spot for stargazing.

We’re lucky to have some stellar properties located within the boundary of the Dark Sky Reserve; each perfectly placed for admiring the incredible night skies. Fitted with telescopes and binoculars, or with the option to include a stargazing kit when you stay, our Stargazing collection properties are set up to offer you a spectacular dark sky experience.

Please note that each holiday cottage will be set up differently for stargazing.
